UCSD BMES will present a demonstration about the respiratory systems using an assembled model of the lungs. The model will demonstrate how the diaphragm works to breath in and out of the lungs. We will also have a poster to give students an opportunity to work through some bioengineering problems about the respiratory system (Ex: What device would you create to help someone with breathing problems? Someone with a collapsed lung? Someone with a diseased or failing lung?).
See germs glow on your hands and how to properly wash them clean! Rub a small amount of a fluorescent gel on your hands to simulate germs when seen under ultra-violet light. Then wash your hands and let the ultra-violet light reveal how well you did!
Bioengineering applications such as genetic engineering and organ modeling.
Play Math! is an interactive space for families to play with shapes, patterns, and puzzles. Participants can look for new ways to fit blocks into a hexagon, create a new object with SOMA blocks, or use a pattern machine to look for the longest path. Specific activities may rotate, but they all have one thing in common - they offer an opportunity to play math!
TaylorMade will offer a fun interactive putter demonstration and golf ball trajectory experiment.
County of San Diego resources and hand washing activity. Resources will include but not limited to: mental health, environmental health, COVID-19, Live Well San Diego, homelessness, CalFresh, 2-1-1, Grandparents Raising Grandchildren, etc.
Bioengineering applications in genetic engineering, organ modeling, etc
Join our practicing engineers in hands-on demonstrations of scale model bridges. Test the limits of each model, and discover the secrets of how they work.
Learn how bridges withstand the forces of cars, trucks, trains, wind, earthquakes, and more. See and touch actual bridge materials. Learn how you, too, can become a bridge engineer!
It takes true community spirit and engagement to build a successful Festival Week and momentum to support ongoing programs. Our mission is to provide meaningful year-round STEAM experiences for youth and adults alike in San Diego, and throughout the state of CA through our virtual platform.
